Rb Adapter Plate

[BattleFairy]

need some input from ya guys

what ya think of my mega hightech adapter plate which use oem mounts  

[RB25sx - SLPR]

That setup would effectively give you 2 sets of dampeners and I doubt thats what you want. Also, given the weight of the motor, and the length of that (effectively a torque arm) plate you are going to more than likely shear something. Either make an adapter that goes from those mounts (that are shot now, by the way) to the 4 bolt engine mount on the RB or make an adapter from the single bolt RB isolator to the crossmember.

I ended up ditching the crossmember all together and bolted my engine mounts to the frame rails.

-dan

edit: Perhaps I overlooked one thing, is the RB isolator single bolt on both sides? In that case you could bolt to the engine mount - but you are still applying a lot of twisting torque.

yeahh that twisty thing iam aware^^
iam thinking about some support behind the plate like a puk or something that rest on the crossmember itself

i basicly make a more simpel version of some swap kits which i saw across the web

^^pricetags around 300$ makes me laugh for some simple plates

180$  

yeahh you see the plates in the middle?

Looks not too bad.  Similar to the design I have... I'll have to reference the details where my thread is.

s13 tension rods....

make a bracket for the rod to attach to the motor, then cut the rod shorter, and weld it wherever you desire. then beef it up.
